Bilingual (Spanish) in healthcare

Rating:
(votes: 0)


Hi there!

I'm looking at relocating and looking for nursing positions in my new locale. There are needs for bilingual nurses, but I don't know how to..get qualified to fill those needs. I took some Spanish courses in school, but never got the chance to practice enough so I'm rusty. However, I hesitate to re-take the regular Spanish courses because I need something healthcare related, with medical terminology. Any idea where to access such courses and if such courses would be satisfactory to potential employers?

Thanks in advance for any help you can give me!
I would go take the regular classes, get conversant again, then add in medical vocabularyI mostly use it for discharge teaching, and regular conversational Spanish is really needed, especially when it comes to understanding what they are saying to you.

I found this online:Medical Spanish for Hospital NursesI don't know how the course is. This is something I should look into myself. I am not fluent. I took 3 years in high school then worked with a doctor for 5 years who spoke Spanish to his patients. I do pretty well with work related Spanish but if they something not related to work I lose them.
